Annual Alumni Dinner.


The Rossville High School Alumni reunion and party was held Saturday evening, June 4th at the Dekat Center in Rossville.  Attending were 90 alumni and guests.  The evening included a social time with dinner served at 6:00 p.m.   The program started with 10 former cheerleaders leading the Rossville High School Song.  Ashley Broxterman and Katie Conley were honored as the Alumni Foundation Scholarship winners for 2016.  Ashley and Katie spoke to the group about their accomplishments in school and goals for the future.   They were each awarded a $1000.00 scholarship to be used for their higher education. Toby McCullough, principal of Rossville High School, gave a very informative talk about the academic, music and sports awards of the High School students during this school year.  All alumni attending were introduced and stood to be recognized.  The classes of 1961 (55 years) and 1966 (50 years) each had seven classmates in attendance.  The oldest graduates in attendance were Jim Fitzgerald and Juanita Keller Raab.   They graduated in 1941 -- 75 years ago. After the meeting, class photos were taken.  It was a fun evening for all.
